Chapter 550 Hopes and bright smiles
"You are a narcissist, Dad.""Shut up, idiot son," Soo Enlai scowled at him.
The twins who were wailing until now giggled at their grandfather's antics. Soo Zhenya, especially, was more chirpy as she played in his arms.
Soo Enlai's heart melted. "Aish, you two are just like how Xinyi and Yunru were when they were babies. Though Xinyi was cuter and less troublesome than Yunru."
"Hey…"
Soo Enlai stared at them with a warm gaze. "I wish your grandmother would have been here. She is the most pro out of us, after all. And she would have been so happy to play with you two."
Yunru smiled. "Missing Mom?"
He chuckled. "I miss her everyday, Yunru. Siying, Shui and now Yijun and Zhenya…I wish she could have…a part of this too…"
He slightly trembled, and his voice choked. Times like these were when Soo Enlai missed his wife even more dearly. "I feel like I am hogging so much unjustly."
Yunru came to his side and hugged him. "You are hogging nothing. And who says that Mom is not a part of this? Mom is watching us from heaven. Didn't you always say that? If we make any trouble, then Mom will come down and spank us hard. Sis and I were so afraid," he chuckled.
Soo Enlai laughed, wiping the small tear off his eye. He tickled the twins, making them giggle.
*Ding Dong*
Yunru opened the door and beamed seeing Xinyi and Zhiyuan. "Sis! Brother-in-law!"
"Hey," Zhiyuan patted his shoulder. "How are things going on here?"
"Grandpa!!!"
Siying ran towards Soo Enlai and hugged him, brightening at the sight of his baby cousins.
Shui, who was almost a year old now, was curiously giggling as she looked around her grandfather's house from her crib.
Yunru laughed. "It's a war. Princess is sleeping. How are you two here?"
Xinyi said, "Hehe, we were out shopping so decided to drop by here."
She bent and gasped. "Aiyaaa, look how cute my twins are."
Yijun and Zhenya stared at their Aunt and smiled. Their watery eyes shone with happiness.
Zhiyuan pushed the crib with Shui and accompanied Xinyi too. "Haha, they are so cute."
Shui and Siying played with their cousins.
Soo Enlai proudly smiled. "Aren't they? My grandchildren are the cutest of all!"
Zhiyuan asked, "Oh, where is Zizi?"
"Sleeping. It was a tiring night," Yunru sighed, "especially with two naughty babies."
The twins darted their gazes away, feigning innocence.
Xinyi felt bad. "I hope she is fine."
Just then, Zizi yawned and came down, having bed hair on her head.
Zhiyuan blinked and burst into a chuckle followed by everyone.
Zizi was confused and then she widened her eyes. "Bro! Xinyi! Why are you laughing?"
Siying pointed at her. "Aunt, you look cute with that head."
"Ah?"
She touched her head and was speechless. "My bed hair! Don't look at me! I am such a mess!"
Xinyi dragged her out. "Oof. You are not a mess. Come here."
Yunru hugged her. "Had a good sleep?"
She nodded hard. "Yes!"
She then looked at her adorable twins and pouted. "They always stay so calm when I am not here! When I am there, they only cry," she sobbed.
Zhiyuan chuckled. "It happens, Zizi. I am so proud of you. You are doing great."
Xinyi agreed. "Don't worry about crying and yelling."
"Really?" She hopefully asked.
"En. You will get used to it."
"..."
Zizi burst into tears.
Yunru complained. "Sis, don't bully my wife."
Xinyi stuck out her tongue.
The doorbell rang again, and this time the whole gang plus the elders came as well.
Yunru - "..."
"Why is everyone here?"
Liang glared at him. "You traitor! I heard that you are all partying here! How can you party without us?"
"Huh? Nobody is partying-"
Suddenly, the small Soo house was filled upto the brim with a bunch of adults and children.
An Guoting and An Yueqin excitedly rushed to see the twins while Han Huizhong only sneered and sat beside Soo Enlai.
Han Tian and Han Liqin, who remarried a few months back, surrounded themselves among the kids. The children and babies were clustered together at one end.
Zhiyuan and Xinyi were speechless. "We just dropped by here."
Ah Cy and Caihong complained. "You should have called us too."
Shuang lazily said, "Just say that you were hell bored staying cooped at your house, and you just wanted a reason to party."
"Shut up! Go get busy with your husband! Aren't you newly married? Shoo and spend your honeymoon with him."
"..."
"We already came back from our honeymoon."
Jack craned his neck as he stood in the guys group. "I don't mind another one."
A series of coughs sounded in the room.
Daniel and Si Min were also a part of this after Shuang and Jack introduced them to the gang.
Daniel sneered. "Shameless."
"Shut up, Dad. I cannot be more shameless than you," Jack fought back.
Si Min said with her cheeks turning red, "I heard nothing."
Xiaosi steered away and looked for some juice. He then asked a serious question to all the men, "Does a switch get activated in a mother when a child is born? I feel ignored."
Zhiyuan and Liang looked at him as if they found a comrade.
"Ever since Yuhan is here, Ah Cy ignores me too."
"Same here," Zhiyuan sobbed. "Siying and Shui surround her all the time and what about me?"
Yunru said, "It's the reverse in my case. Princess complains that I ignore her."
The men had solemn expressions. Jack was the only one, grinning in the group.
Zhiyuan smirked. "That smile won't be for long, buddy. Once Shuang gives birth, you are gonna join this party too."
"Hey. Let me at least enjoy my life until then. We have just gotten married. I don't want to be ignored so soon."
Xiaosi laughed. The men in the gang watched their wives and children laughing and playing around.
It was a time filled with cheers, smiles and fun. The impromptu party at the Soo house turned out to be a big bash as everybody reminisced their old times and cherished their present.
The painful past was left behind, and everybody came together to celebrate their life that was now filled with only hopes and bright smiles.
